User groups are simply that. A module that collates users in to groups.
These groups can be used wherever a user can be assigned or referenced.
Example
A user group called "CAMO Team" may be created, and users within the CAMO can be assigned to that group.
When a document is released, the organisation may wish the CAMO team to discuss and action accordingly. Therefore the document can be distributed to an entire team, or "User Group".
